Famous quotes containing the words american and/or spirit:

    “Mighty few young black women are doin’ domestic work. And I’m glad. That’s why I want my kids to go to school. This one lady told me, “All you people are gettin’ like that.” I said, “I’m glad.” There’s no more gettin’ on their knees.”
    —Maggie Holmes, African American domestic worker. As quoted in Working, book 3, by Studs Terkel (1973)

    “Lord, thy most pointed pleasure take
    And stab my spirit broad awake;
    Or, Lord, if too obdurate I,
    Choose thou, before that spirit die,
    A piercing pain, a killing sin,
    And to my dead heart run them in!”
    —Robert Louis Stevenson (1850–1894)
